How to remove a property

Managing your properties efficiently in myInspections is key to staying organised, and sometimes that means removing a property you no longer need. Whether it’s an archived property or one that’s no longer active, we’ve got you covered with this step-by-step guide.

Step-by-step: Removing a property (via the app)


Step 1 - Archive the property


To tidy up your main property list, you can archive any property you no longer need to see. Archiving removes it from the main list while keeping all associated inspections securely stored for future reference.

  1. Open the app
  2. Go to your list of properties under the title “My Properties”
  3. Select the property you want to remove
  4. Press the three dots (…) to open a menu of options
  5. Select “Archive Property” from the menu to archive it
  6. Confirm the archive action

Step 2 - Permanently delete the property


  1. Return to the app’s front page
  2. Press the three dots next to “My Properties”
  3. Select “View Archived”
  4. Find the property you just archived
  5. Press the three dots again next to the property
  6. Select “Permanently Delete” to remove it completely from your phone and account

Step-by-step: Removing a property (via the website)


If you are on a paid plan you can also remove a property, by editing it online. Here's how to do it:

  1. Log In to Your Account - Start by logging into your myInspections account on the web dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Your Properties List - Once logged in, go to the Properties tab on the left-hand menu to view your current list of properties.
  3. Find the Property You Want to Delete - Scroll through your list or use the search bar to locate the property you wish to remove.
  4. Select the Delete Option
    • Click the three-dot menu (options icon) next to the property’s name.
    • From the dropdown menu, select Delete.
  5. Confirm the Deletion - A confirmation pop-up will appear to ensure you don’t accidentally delete a property. Click Confirm to permanently delete the property from your account.



Keep in Mind


  •  Inspections in archived properties count towards your free plan limits
  •  Once a property is permanently deleted, it cannot be recovered, so double-check before confirming deletion.

This process is designed to ensure you have control over your property records, whether you’re cleaning up your list or making room for new additions. If you encounter any issues, our support team is always here to help.
